As I recall, the articles dealt mostly with Cunningham and mentioned Wikles, but also said something about Hunter still being investigated. The Abramoff was a throwaway line or two.
Since it wasn't what I was actually looking for, I didn't save
the articles.....though I do remember most of what was in them. I'm still trying to find out more about his terrible stand on trade, so if I see those articles again, I shall send you mail.

I recognize that he has positions on trade and on the border that some are vehemently opposed to. Those make for healthy discussion and disagreement.

I was only challenging the corruption-type references. Several California Congressman supported some of the same earmarks as did Cunningham. Early on, the San Diego Union-Tribune (who pretty much broke the Cunningham scandal with their reporting) suggested that others might also go under the microscope. A couple years later, I have yet to hear that Hunter was ever a target of any investigation or seen any suggestion that there was wrong-doing on his part. Brent Wilkes is connected to tons of politicians; he was even a Bush "Pioneer." The US Attorney in San Diego is wrapping up her investigation; she has also submitted her resignation and word is she will issue the indictment before leaving office. If there is anything implicating Hunter, we would see it then.
